Every presentation you create has its own Slide Master, even if you are not aware. This Master governs the default attributes of all slides in your presentation such as the background, font choices, colors, and even the positioning of the placeholders. This makes all your slides look consistent. However, even then some sets of slides within the same presentation may have disparate slide elements. So, you may have some slides that are governed by one Slide Master and other slides that are governed by a completely different Slide Master!

PowerPoint allows you to print Notes pages. These contain the notes that you may have saved within the Notes pane for all your individual slides. Unless you modify the Notes Master, your printed Notes pages may look basic. The Notes Master is one of the four Masters within PowerPoint. This Master enables you to modify the appearance of your Notes pages, especially how they will look when you print them.

Handouts are presentation accompaniments that are almost always intended for print. It is a good idea to distribute handouts before your PowerPoint presentation’s delivery so that the audience can follow along the presentation. If you don’t do so, you may certainly want to carry handouts with you to distribute as takeaways for your audience. You can control the look of your handouts by formatting the Handout Master. This can be useful if you want to include a graphic such as a logo on each page of your handout.
